The couple shared the news in a joint statement to the media and said that they were separating and will most likely go through with a divorce.

This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of the last year.”

Following the news, distraught and heartbroken fans took to social media to mourn the end of this Hollywood power couple.

The one where Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux’s divorce truly left me SHOOK.

But, the sad news wasn’t the only thing that had Jennifer Aniston’s name trending on Thursday. It seems that many people noticed that her ex, Brad Pitt is also now single after splitting from his wife Angelia Jolie in 2016. Suddenly, Twitter was divided over whether or not Aniston and Pitt should reunited given Pitt’s alleged bad behavior and alcoholism that has made headlines through the years.

Why are people saying Jennifer Aniston should get back with Brad Pitt now they're both single? His sorry ass cheated on her! She deserves wayyyy better. And I say this even though she was my least favourite friends character.
